Li Deshan was a little hesitant after hearing Jia Ke's words, but finally asked his doubts: "Master, since this man has two minds, why don't you deal with him?"
Jia Ke shook his head and explained to him: "If there is no fault, let's deal with him, an old minister who has been with me since the beginning. What will other people think of me? I'm afraid the literati in the world will become disloyal. We govern
The world still depends on these people."
After hearing this, Li Deshan quickly said flatteringly: "The master is still wise. The slave follows the master's self-consciousness, and sees things much better than before."
Although Jia Ke knew that Li Deshan was complimenting him, he still couldn't help but smile.
Let’s not talk about Jia Ke’s future arrangements here, let’s talk about Jia Yuanchun in Fengzao Palace.
Although Jia Yuanchun has officially become the empress dowager today, her anger has not gone away. Jia Ke has robbed her of all her glory today.
Jia Yuanchun was sitting in Fengzao Palace, thinking about how to compete with Jia Ke in the future.
Dai Quan, who was standing next to him, looked at Jia Yuanchun and stepped forward to remind him: "Empress Dowager, should we pack up and prepare to move to the palace?"
"Don't worry yet. The Ai family sees that King Yan still made some inconsiderate things in the court today. As the queen mother, the Ai family has to make up for it."
After hearing what Jia Yuanchun said, Dai Quan felt excited. It seemed that Jia Yuanchun had just become the Queen Mother and started to compete with Jia Ke for power. However, this Jia Yuanchun had not experienced any serious experience in the court. Did he really think that
Can Jia Ke be suppressed just by virtue of his title?
Jia Yuanchun did not see Dai Quan's ugly face, but continued: "Go to Kangning Palace on behalf of the emperor to convey the decree, and say that the current empress dowager will be named the empress dowager."
After hearing this, Dai Quan scratched his head for a while, and then said with some caution: "Reporting to the Queen Mother, we can write the emperor's decree, but without the emperor's jade seal, we can't do anything in the end."
After Jia Yuanchun heard this, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and then he said: "Once the emperor and his ministers, the jade seals we had before our emperor ascended the throne are somewhat inappropriate. If you carve another jade seal, use this jade seal to convey the decree."
.”
After hearing this, Dai Quan was so frightened that he could no longer stand still. He knelt down in front of Jia Yuanchun and kowtowed.
Dai Quan now feels that he is very unlucky to have such a master in the stall. If Jia Ke finds out about this privately carved jade seal, the nine tribes will not survive.
When Jia Yuanchun saw Dai Quan like this, he was a little angry that he didn't live up to his expectations, but he had no one available in the palace. Since everyone refused, he had to think of other ways.
Jia Yuanchun rolled his eyes and then had another idea, "Is the "Tongdaotang" seal used by the former emperor still there?"
After hearing this, Dai Quan understood what Jia Yuanchun meant. This "Tongdaotang" seal was a seal specially carved by the emperor for the convenience of doing things in the palace after Jia Ke took away all the emperor's jade seals.
"When I get back to the Queen Mother, the Emperor's seal will still be placed in Fengzao Palace."
"Then from now on all our imperial edicts will be sealed with Tongdaotang."
Dai Quan was a little hesitant when he heard this, and then said carefully: "Do you need to tell King Yan Qiansui about this?"
Jia Yuanchun's face darkened when he heard this, "There's no need to tell eldest brother. Anyway, eldest brother has dozens of square jade seals, so he doesn't care about this "Tongdaotang Seal"."
After Jia Yuanchun finished speaking, he urged Dai Quan, "Hurry up and write the imperial edict and send it to Kangning Palace."
Dai Quan could only bite the bullet and write an imperial edict. Finally, he took the Tongdaotang seal from the back hall of Fengzao Palace and stamped it on the imperial edict.
After Dai Quan finished writing, Jia Yuanchun took the imperial edict into his hand, looked at it carefully, and then nodded.
"Go and deliver the message now."
Dai Quan accepted Jia Yuanchun's order and exited Fengzao Palace holding the imperial edict in his hands.
After Dai Quan left, Jia Yuanchun's face began to darken while holding the little emperor.
The emperor's death seemed too strange to Jia Yuanchun. The emperor often rested in her Fengzao Palace during this period. She knew the emperor's vigor and vigor best.
Since the emperor died mysteriously, then his good brother Jia Ke must have done this. Since Jia Ke could get rid of the emperor for the sake of power, he could not guarantee that he would also deal with his own mother and son for the sake of power in the future.
His mother and son were now in critical danger, and it seemed that he needed to find a way, so Jia Yuanchun thought of the former Empress Dowager.
Brother Jia did not canonize the original empress dowager this time, probably because she had second thoughts when the emperor declared rebellion.
In this case, it is better to sell her a favor yourself. The Queen Mother is also a straightforward person, and she may be able to make up for it in the future.
Jia Yuanchun knew that the Empress Dowager was a general, and her father also had some influence in the army. In addition, she had been with the late Emperor for so many years. No one would believe that she did not have some arrangements.
Jia Yuanchun just sent a message to Kangning Palace, and Jia Ke got the news.
Jia Ke is now sitting on the throne of Dongnuan Pavilion, and the pen in his hand is thrown directly to the ground.
Li Deshan stood aside, trembling with fear, looking at his feet and not daring to raise his head.
"What else is going on with Jia Yuanchun?"
When Li Deshan heard Jia Ke's question, he quickly replied: "The Queen Mother plans to use the Tongdaotang seal when issuing imperial edicts in the future."
After Jia Ke heard this, she knew that Jia Yuanchun was fighting for power with her. She wanted to replace Yuxi in giving orders based on her fellow-teacher seal.
"Preach my order. From today on, Tongdaotang Seal cannot leave the palace. If anyone in the world respects such an imperial edict, I will punish him for the crime of falsely conveying the imperial order."
After hearing this, Li Deshan quickly agreed. Regarding this matter, Li Deshan also felt that Jia Yuanchun was a bit ridiculous. Did she really think that she could rule the world with just that little jade seal?
Jia Ke still felt puzzled after passing on this order, and continued: "From now on, the Queen Mother will be taking care of her in the Cining Palace. If nothing happens, no one will disturb her."
After hearing this, Li Deshan immediately asked: "Master, if it is Duke Rong's wife who comes, should we let her go?"
"Idiot, I told you not to disturb anyone."
Li Deshan now understood that Jia Ke wanted to put Jia Yuanchun under house arrest. It seemed that he was very angry with Jia Yuanchun's struggle for power.
Jia Ke thought for a while and then said: "Since the Empress Dowager has revoked the title of Empress Dowager, let's not get into trouble. However, I do not recognize this imperial edict, so the Empress Dowager will not issue the gold seal and book.
, some offerings remain as usual.”
Li Deshan listened on the sidelines and immediately understood what Jia Ke meant. Jia Yuanchun named the Empress Dowager the Empress Dowager, but without a gold seal or book, it was just a name without any actual benefits, or even
Outside the palace, others may not admit it.
Seeing this, their master wanted to give the new empress dowager a show of strength and let her know who was in charge of the world.
Not to mention them, let's talk about Rongguo Mansion. In the morning, the masters of Rongguo Mansion knew that Jia Ke would support the young prince's succession to the throne today, so they were all waiting for the good news in Jia Mu's room.
Sure enough, he didn't have much time before Lin Zhixiao reported that he wanted to see Jia's mother for something.
After getting Jia Mu's consent, Lin Zhixiao carefully entered Jia Mu's room. When he saw Jia Mu, he kowtowed first, and then carefully stood aside after Jia Mu asked him to get up.
"What do you have to say?" Although Jia Mu knew that Lin Zhixiao must have come to announce the good news, she still asked reservedly.
"My servant congratulates the old lady."
"The emperor has just passed away, where does my happiness come from?"
"If I go back to the old lady, there are eunuchs outside who have brought the imperial edict to our house and asked the old lady and others to receive the edict in Rongxi Hall."
Mother Jia smiled after hearing this. After Jia Zheng and Jia She came back from the court this morning, they told her the whole story, and gave Jia Ke the honorary title of honoring Jia Daishan as the King of Honor, and the honorary title of Princess Honor to her.
Things are naturally clear.
Although Jia Mu knew it, she still had to be reserved, so she said to Jia Zheng and Jia She next to her: "Since the new emperor has passed down the imperial edict, we cannot afford to neglect it. You should hurry up to Rongxi Hall to prepare."
Naturally, these two people knew that this was a happy event, so they bowed to Jia Mu, then exited Jia Mu's room, and then brought the close relatives of the Jia family to the Hall of Rongxi, where Lin Zhixiao had died, and the servant
We are preparing the incense table.
When Jia Zheng and others saw that all the preparations for the ceremony had been completed, they quickly ordered people to go to the back to invite Jia's mother.
Then Jia Zheng, Jia She and Jia Zhen came to the gate of Rongguo Mansion in person.
At this time, the little eunuch who was in front of the door had been waiting for a long time. When he saw the three heads of the Jia family coming out, he did not dare to be arrogant and quickly stepped forward to salute them.
Jia Zheng stepped forward and helped the young eunuch up first, and then said: "My father-in-law has come a long way, so there is no need to be polite. It won't be too late for us to talk to you at Rongxi Hall."
So this group of people came to the Ronxi Hall, and in the Ronxi Hall, Jia Mu was already sitting in the middle.
When the little eunuch saw Jia Mu, he immediately cleverly came forward and kowtowed to Jia Mu. Jia Mu smiled and asked the maid next to her to help him up.
Then the young eunuch stood next to Jia Mu and said: "Old ancestor, this servant is serving the emperor's imperial edict and has conferred titles on several people in the mansion."
Jia Mu smiled and asked, "I wonder what my eldest daughter is like now."
The little eunuch listened and hurriedly replied with a smile: "The emperor has made Concubine Xiande the empress dowager, and she has lived in Cining Palace."
Jia Mu nodded after hearing this, while Mrs. Wang standing aside was already smiling, and now he felt proud.
Seeing that everyone had finished talking, Jia Zheng hurriedly stepped forward and said to Jia's mother: "Old lady, it's getting late. It's better to let this young father-in-law convey the decree quickly."
"I'm so confused that I forgot about this. Is the incense table ready?"
"If I get back to the old lady, the incense table has been set up."
"In that case, let's go to the front."
So this group of people gathered around the old lady and came to the main hall of Rongxi Hall, where the incense table and offerings had been set up, waiting for the little eunuch to deliver the order.
